Two modern bathrooms provide plenty of space for everyone. One features a large walk-in shower, while the top-floor bathroom includes a stunning freestanding bath beneath a skylight — the perfect place to unwind after a day hiking, cycling or exploring the surrounding countryside.
To the rear of the property, a small patio provides access to secure on-site storage for bikes and outdoor equipment.
Guest Access:
You have the use of the entire townhouse. The property can be accessed from the front and rear, with space to store bikes in the utility room situated off the small patio.
The Neighborhood:
Dolgellau is a bustling market town full of ancient stone buildings, restaurants, grand hotels, and historic sites. The area is known for its wild, beautiful countryside on the edge of the Mid Wales mountain ranges. Dolgellau also sits along a beautiful estuary, surrounded by mountains, making it a picture-perfect holiday destination.
Being at the foot of Cader Idris, Dolgellau is known for its exquisite hiking trails. The Precipice Walk is a circular walk that stretches over parts of the 12th-century Nannau estate. Passing through deciduous woodland and overlooking the Mawddach Estuary towards the incomparable Snowdonia Mountain ranges, this is a great walk for the family as, despite its name, it’s a fairly easy hike, only around 5km in distance and has fantastic views.
Climbing Cader Idris itself is a little more challenging. At 2.930 feet, it’s the highest mountain in southern Snowdonia. While it’s a popular challenge, the hike to the summit can take 5 hours, so you might want to use the bathroom at the car park by the foot of the mountain before leaving. The Pony Path heads up the mountainside to the stony cliffs above Llyn y Gader, the fantastic lake. Take in the incredible views of the Mawddach estuary and Barmouth before scrambling to the trig point.
If coming down rocky, watery canyons is more your style, then a 30-minute drive takes you to the National White Water Centre, Bala. The raging natural rapids are perfect for learning to white water raft or canoe in the most beautiful surroundings. If you’re taking your family, be aware that the minimum age is 12 to take part at the world-class venue.
Perhaps you prefer careering up and down mountains on two wheels? Coed y Brenin Mountain Biking Centre, Bala, is popular with mountain bikers worldwide and is situated in Coed y Brenin Forest Park. You can hire bikes, follow trails, walk through the stunning forest, or stop for a cup of tea and a welsh cake at the café.
Of course, at Glanrhyd, you’re only a short distance from the mid-Wales coast and the breathtaking beaches of Cardigan Bay. Fairbourne beach is a mere 8 miles away, and Tal-y-Bont beach is only 10 miles away. Both are fantastic stretches of sand that are ideal for family days at the beach.
Barmouth, the popular Victorian seaside resort, is only a 20-minute drive from your accommodation. Why not make it a walking destination? Mawddach trail runs from Dolgellau to Barmouth. This 9.5-mile route is the former railway line and is now an official family-friendly, traffic-free scenic route along the estuary of Afon Mawddach.
